Research Abstract |
We have shown that protection against bacterial and/or viral infections is inhibited by an intense exercise, and physical activity is inhibited by the immune defense function after infection. Immunosuppression due to the intense exercise is a reasonable reaction defense to minimize the inflammation with a focus on skeletal muscle after exercise. On the other hand, the regulation of physical activity by the immune function saves energy consumption, and that is a system that gives higher priority to energy use for immune reaction.
